  • Sewage Sludge-to-Energy
  • Organic Domestic Waste-to-Energy
  • Agricultural Waste-to-Energy

The bioresources sector in the UK is one of the most advanced bioresource sectors in the world, with more than 80% of raw sewage sludge being treated with anaerobic digestion with a mature framework to sustainably recycle most of the final product on agricultural land.

However, the complex bioresources operations are often managed by siloed business units with different, and at times, competing targets. This leads to the sub-optimal operation of the bioresource system and often unclear decision-making accountabilities across the process.

In addition, wastewater utilities continuously face the challenges of meeting their increased regulatory requirements, protecting the interests of consumers, and being resilient in the face of climate change. The need for adaptive planning capabilities is paramount.

The biogas industry is poised for significant growth and is increasingly recognised as a crucial component in the global transition to sustainable energy systems.
